Home insurance can help protect against loss or damage of your home and its contents due to unexpected events like fire, smoke, wind, theft and vandalism, and certain types of water damage.
It could also help cover your additional living expenses, such as a hotel or rental unit and meals, up to your coverage amount if you're temporarily unable to live in your home while it’s being repaired due to a covered claim.
Typically, you would buy home insurance before the closing date on your new home, to ensure that you have coverage on your property from the date that you take ownership.
In most cases, a financial institution won’t give you a mortgage or secured line of credit until your home is insured. Make sure to ask questions about your home insurance needs with a PC® licensed insurance advisor and your mortgage advisor, financial institution, or financial specialist when you are buying a property.
The amount of coverage should be enough to cover the value of your possessions and the cost to repair or rebuild your home in the event of a covered claim.
